I'm curious, is the OS running on the 8 core AMD processor or does Sony have a secondary one that does all the OS, streaming and background downloading? Because that UI looks smooth as fuck. I would imagine it takes quite a bit of processing power.

Parties! Finally!!!

There's also what seems to be a new version of the cross game text chat mixed in with Parties.

It is. Did you think it was...like a Turtle Beach headset or something?
Not at all, but I was expecting more than a cell phone headset. Something like Xbox 360 one where the mic is by your mouth. I hate mics that fall to your clothing. You always have to talk louder to get it to pick you up.

The multi-tasking looks awesome. The actual visual design of the plain blue menus, with lots of overly large boxes scattered all over looks horrible.

Not a fan of the system UI at all. XMB is better if they added multi-tasking and improved friend list stuff.
 
I don't know if I'm digging that headset. I hope that's not final. I'd much rather have a cheap one that goes around the head. The one in the video just looks like it would fall out so easily and have a hard time picking up your voice with the mic just dangling there.

OK ... so that pretty much confirms PS4 can easily flip between video .. and yr game, mid game session ...


so err ... whats all this 3rd OS bullshit that xbone needs to stutter it's way through to do the same thing?

If I am correct, you should be able to use any mobile headset. I'm sure you have shit loads lying around. This is a very cheap headset, and I guess the reason being the fact that those who can't afford (?) or are lazy to get one will now have a choice, and its this one.

Wait for BUILD later this month. I wouldn't be surprised if the Windows kernel is there to allow easy porting of Windows Store apps.

What game is this supposed to be? The logo doesn't match Dragon Crown, Dragon Age, or Dragon Dogma's type.

It looks surprisingly like the Xbox UI. Seems like every company is going for the metro look ever since windows phone came out.
